A postdoctoral fellow position is immediately available in my laboratory.
My laboratory uses molecular genetics to investigate fundamental processes
in cell biology. The areas of research interest are protein secretion, cellular
polarity and mitosis. See the recent publication for additional details:

Baylor College of Medicine is located in the Texas Medical
Center. The laboratories of the Texas Medical Center are involved in a
broad range of research, ranging from basic microbial genetics and
developmental biology to gene therapy. This is a dynamic and highly
interactive international research community providing many opportunities
for scientific collaboration. The international recognition of the Texas Medical
Center brings renowned scientists to the center for seminars and meetings.
Interested individuals should send a letter stating their research
